SniffiVerse™ walkies Toot 
Ello frens and fans of Arwen 
We're out again, and Arwen is taking the sniffing very seriously. I've had to push her forward a few times now, as I was getting cold with just standing still for a while. It's dry, it's been dry too long now, but hey, it's nice when it's not raining during walkies. But it's only 4°C, with a real feel of about 2 degrees. So it's not that warm to stand still...
I rode the seated bike for half an hour. One massage chair was taken, so I decided to just get ready to head home. Of course, when I was getting up to leave, the person left the chair... Ugh, just my luck...
I enjoyed brekky and now I'm telling Arwen that a sniff is good, but she doesn't have to inhale everything 😂. The night isn't long enough to do all of that! 😇
I shared my plans in the gym Toot, to I guess I'll now try to write a bit for my blog. 😊 I hope you're having a good time! #TZAG 
catch you later folks!

#SurrealThursday: Asemic Tarot Reading
Considering all the upheaval and uncertainty generated by Trump Tariffs, I decided to do an Asemic Tarot Reading using random number choices and a five card spread. Using a random number generator, the first number was 55.
My only requirement for the next four numbers must have included 3 because it is April 3rd. The numbers that popped up were: 31 83 32 30

Microsoft's Copilot Roasts Bill Gates, Steve Ballmer, and Satya Nadella - Slashdot
"Three Microsoft CEOs walk into a room..." Satya Nadella posted on X.com, "and are interviewed by Copilot!" As part of Microsoft's 50th anniversary celebration, Microsoft CEO Nadella joined former Microsoft CEOs Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer in a fu…entertainment.slashdot.org
The three knights of the apocalypse.
#SteveBallmer was one of the worst things that happened to the software industry.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Ba…
"He maintained that his comments in 2001 were right at the time but that times have changed."
Not thanks to him. And #Microsoft does not use #Copyleft licenses in their works, like most corporations, including #Google.
Had it not been a monopoly, Microsoft would have disappeared.

The image depicts a vast desert landscape with large rock formations in the background. In the foreground, a person is walking away from the viewer on a dirt road, wearing a red shirt and dark pants. To the right, there is a large, futuristic-looking vehicle with a tall, rectangular structure attached to it, possibly a communication or observation tower. The vehicle has a white and blue color scheme and is equipped with six wheels, suggesting it is designed for off-road travel. The desert is sparsely vegetated, with small bushes and a few distant poles visible. The sky is partly cloudy, and the overall color palette consists of warm tones, with the ground appearing reddish-orange and the sky a pale blue.

in reply to Pixy's Journey • • •The image shows a close-up view of the Moon, captured during its waxing gibbous phase. The Moon is prominently displayed in the center of the frame, with a significant portion illuminated by sunlight, revealing its cratered surface. The right side of the Moon is brightly lit, while the left side is in shadow, creating a distinct contrast. The surface features various shades of gray, with darker areas representing craters and lighter areas indicating highlands. The text in the bottom right corner reads "Waxing 🌙 gibbous 69.3% 07/04/2025 1:52," indicating the phase, percentage of illumination, date, and time of the observation. The background is a deep black, emphasizing the Moon's details. The image has a textured border, adding a visual frame to the photograph.
